8.1. Google Analytics and Conversion Tracking

Since the vote of the Hamburg commissioner for data protection and freedom of information with Google on the basis of the decision of the Dusseldorf circle for the privacy-compliant design of analysis methods for measuring range in Internet offers a privacy-compliant and complaint-free use of Google Analytics, possible under certain conditions. We comply with these requirements. In particular, we point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code "gat._anonymizeIp();" in order to ensure an anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP-Masking).

Please also note the following information about the use of Google Analytics:

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer and that allow an analysis of the use of the website by you.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or other parties to the agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

In addition, we use Google conversion tracking in connection with Google Analytics. This allows us to capture the behavior of our website visitors. For example, we see how many PDF's were downloaded on our website or how often the contact form was filled out. It also tells us how many clicks on ads from external sources (AdWords, LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, etc.) have taken us to our website.

The IP address provided by Google Analytics as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by a corresponding setting of your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to the fullest extent possible. In addition, you may prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by using the link below (https:// tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en) to download and install the available browser plugin.

You can prevent the collection by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie is set, which prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website: Disable Google Analytics

To draw attention to our current projects and developments, planned activities and services, we run Google AdWords ads and use Google's conversion tracking as part of that. These ads appear after searches on Google Network sites. We have the opportunity to combine our ads with specific keywords. We also use AdWords remarketing lists for search ads. This allows us to customize search ad campaigns for users who have visited our website before. Through the services we have the possibility to combine our advertisements with certain keywords or to show advertisements for previous visitors, e.g. services our visitors looked up on our website.

Interest-based offers require an analysis of online user behavior. Google uses cookies to carry out this analysis. When you click on an ad or visit our website, Google places a cookie on Google's computer. This information is used to target the visitor in a later search request.

For more information on the cookie technology used, please refer to Google's guidance on Website Statistics and Privacy Policy.

Using this technology, Google and we as a customer receive information that a user has clicked on an ad and has been redirected to our web pages to contact us via the contact form. Likewise, Google and we as a customer use Google forwarding numbers to obtain information that someone on the Internet clicked on a phone number from us and contacted us by phone. The information obtained here is used exclusively for a statistical evaluation for ad optimization. We do not receive any information that personally identifies visitors. The statistics provided to us by Google include the total number of users who have clicked on one of our ads and, if applicable, whether they have been redirected to a conversion-tagged page of our website. Based on these statistics, we can understand which search terms were used most often on our ad and which ads lead to contact via the contact form or over the phone by the user. In relation to telephone contact with prospects or customers, the statistics provided by Google include the start time, the end, the status (escaped or received), the duration (seconds), the area code of the caller, the telephone costs and the call types.

If you do not want this, you can prevent the storage of the cookies required for these technologies, for example via the settings of your browser. In this case your visit will not be included in the user statistics.

You also have the option of selecting the types of Google ads or disabling interest-based ads on Google using the ad settings. Alternatively, you can disable the use of third-party cookies by calling the network advertising initiative's opt-out help.

However, we and Google continue to receive statistical information on how many users visited this page. If you do not want to be included in these statistics, you can prevent this with the help of additional programs for your browser.
